I have started this blog mainly for the upcoming cruise, but have found it to be a fun thing. We have been very fortunate to be able to travel to many places, but would like to feel like friends and family are experiencing it with us. Hopefully, this will give you a chance to see as we go, so you don't have to get bored with all of our photos when we get home!!!

Photo Challenge--Day 12

Now this one has really been kind of tough because I have a few--A picture of something you want to do before you die.

There are lots of lists going around of "thing to do before you die". I have been able to do a great many things, and there are many things I will NEVER DO--Appear on Broadway (yes, I've been but will never APPEAR; Visit a nudist colony--NOPE and can't say I ever want to; Taste the finest wine--will never do that one either. However, I have strolled on the Great Wall of China; been white water rafting (thank goodness it doesn't say it has to be a Grade 6 rapid ; ); been in a TV commercial; and swam with the stingrays.

So, what is it I would LIKE TO DO:See Wild Game on an African Safari.

Many years ago one of Allan's sisters was serving with her husband in Johannesburg. His other sister went to visit and Allan was going to visit. I could have checked this off my list if we had gone. Well, maybe one day I'll get a chance to do this.

But, I have to say, visiting family and attending baptisms, graduations, baby blessings, etc., is a WHOLE LOT MORE IMPORTANT TODAY, so this is way, way, way at the bottom of the LIST OF THINGS I WANT TO DO.

My son went to Johannesburg on his mission. We talked about traveling to pick him up and going on Safari then reality set in and we knew we didn't have the time or the money. However, it would be a great thing to do.

Oooo!!! That's an excellent dream! I'd really love to do that too! Invariably when I start thinking about it I start thinking about all the shots we have to have beforehand and all the bugs that are there... (I hope I don't wimp out and will go one day!)

Welcome to my blog. The main reason I created this blog was to record trips so that family and friends could see where we were. It has become much more. I love making memories and sharing them with others.

If you visit, please let me know you were here.

"Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." --Ephesians 4:31-32
